Thanks for getting the changes in. I am starting the conversation with the XenServer team to get changes up-streamed. However, right now I don't have an ETA of when it'll be done. Considering that the process may take time, I thought it would be better to have the changes in asf so that any work isn't blocked on it. I'll keep the thread updated as and when I have something more to share. Regards, Devdeep
